"At Firin, you can rock up, order one dish, and leave satisfied. During the day, the bright airy room is filled with groups stretching their lunch hours, or solo diners speedily working their way through the tender, slow-cooked tandir kebab. The deep brown sofa seating and raging fire of the oven brings warmth to the otherwise grey surroundings of King’s Cross. And you should know that a crispy lahmacun here is a must." - rianne shlebak, sinead cranna, jake missing

"Turkish spot Firin is filled with groups stretching out their lunch hours, or solo diners speedily working their way through the slow-cooked tandir kebab that pulls apart with little encouragement from a fork. The bright airy room, with deep brown sofa seating and the raging fire of the oven, brings warmth to the otherwise grey surroundings of King’s Cross. And you should know that the name Firin translates to oven, so a crispy lahmacun and cheesy pide are also a must." - heidi lauth beasley, jake missing, sinead cranna

I had an incredible dining experience at FIRIN on York Way! The atmosphere is warm and inviting, and the staff is incredibly friendly. The food is absolutely outstanding—each dish is full of bold flavors, beautifully presented, and made with fresh, high-quality ingredients. The unique combination of traditional and modern flavors makes it a must-visit for anyone in the area. We had Develi Pide, Shepherd Salad and Baklava Highly recommend!

I’m so thrilled to have found this gem in London! During our 10-day stay, we tried it once, and after that experience, we knew we had to return for our final meal. The food is absolutely delicious, and the staff are incredibly welcoming. It’s a place where both the atmosphere and the food come together to create a truly memorable dining experience. Highly recommended!

When we first arrived, there were no seats available, so we waited briefly outside. I realized there was something special in that relatively small place. Since we were 12 of us in total, we had the chance to try almost everything on the menu. The starters, lamb tandır, stuffed chicken, diced meat pide, and lahmacun were all absolutely fantastic. However, my favourite one was the lamb meatballs. I rate 10 out of 10. Juicy, tender, rich with vegetables with the fantastic sauce made from homemade tomato paste. We truly loved it. The meal was crowned with baklava and Maraş ice cream served with Turkish tea. The ambiance inside was very relaxing, very fast service, friendly staff and most importantly, the menu was quite unique compared to a typical Turkish restaurant. I would definitely and highly recommend it to anyone who likes unique and forgettable foods.

Sure! Here’s a well-written Google review for Fırın: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Absolutely amazing experience at Fırın! The lahmacun was hands down one of the best I’ve ever had in London—perfectly crispy and packed with flavour. You can really taste the freshness of the ingredients, and the balance of spices was just right. Highly recommend!

A true 5-star restaurant at a great price! Perfect for vegans The stewed lamb is their signature dish and is great. But I think the aubergine kebab is even better (and that’s saying something) - and it’s vegan-friendly! The bread is fresh out of the oven and delicious. Seriously, a great restaurant at a great price!

Very friendly and helpful service, a nice cosy spot close to Kings Cross station and very tasty food - with meat and vegetarian/vegan options. The meze was delicious and the portion size was perfect. Not cheap but good value for central London.

Amazing food! The best Turkish restaurant I’ve been to in London. It’s authentic, cozy with a traditional wood oven. The pita bread and the dips are to die for 🔥 The owner and team are great too! Already been there 2 times and will be going back again!
